The Masqueraders Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on May 4, 2015

The devil and his workers will not appear as satan & deceivers. They will appear to be on your side & on God’s side. But they will take your attention off God, off Jesus Christ, off sharing His Gospel & place attention on man & his frailties.

Spiritual Help For Your Marriage Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Oct 27, 2021

Some men are ashamed that their wife is ahead of them spiritually. So they just hang back and think of the spiritual life as “woman’s work” and so protect their egos. Men are too proud to admit that spiritually they must play catch-up to their wives.

In the Bible, there are three human institutions that stand apart from all others — the family, the church, and the government. There’s nothing in the Bible about how a hospital or a school should be run, even though they are crucial to a flourishing society. There’s nothing there about business ...read more

The Curse Of Sin - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Nov 17, 2021

Sin left a curse. God’s curse is the absence of His blessings and the fall of Adam and Eve is only one of two places in the Bible where God pronounces a curse (the other being on Cain). There is a greater reality we often fail to see and that is there is hope in the curse.

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021
